Protect it from harsh winter winds and sun if necessary, or plant in a space that is naturally buffeted from these winter elements. Plant your Soft Serve in a location that gets at least four hours of sun per day. It prefers loamy, well-drained and lime-free soil with medium moisture and a pH between 5.6 - 6.2. While False Cypress is an adaptable plant, it does have preferences.

Plus, it’s a hardy conifer that is salt tolerant, deer resistant, and adaptable to a variety of growing conditions in Zones 4a-8a. This elegant shape lends itself well to privacy screens, hedges, borders, and as a specimen plant to lend vertical lines and year-round interest. Soft Serve has a natural pyramidal shape that can grow up to 10’ tall – perfect when you need a tree that won’t overtake your space. The fine texture of Soft Serve is quite lovely, with a bright green hue that’s frosted in a silver-blue on the underside. The soft branches and shape are similar to a dwarf Alberta Spruce, but will be taller at maturity. Look to Soft Serve when you need the perfect ornamental evergreen conifer to add architectural interest to your landscape. Add in the low maintenance and perfect height of the Soft Serve False Cypress and you have a real winner. False Cypress have become a widely sought after landscape addition for similar reasons.

There is a delay between orders being placed and the plants being gathered by our pulling team.

This can mean that they don’t look like a ‘picture perfect’ plant when purchased out of season but with the correct care and a little time you’ll have a wonderful plant to enjoy for many years to come.Īvailability: Stock availability figures are provided as a guide only. They are far less likely to suffer from the shock of being planted in colder conditions and they will begin to establish more rapidly the following spring.

Here at Jacksons Nurseries we would favour a hardy outdoor grown plant every time. Our stock is for the most part grown outdoors making it far hardier than those grown under glass and/or only sold ‘In Season’. Unlike many garden centres, supermarkets and some nurseries here at Jacksons Nurseries we sell the majority of our stock all year round.
